Minimum statutory/mandatory training for returning staff

To support returning staff to the NHS, there are four statutory/mandatory training e-learning modules that are required to be completed as a minimum:

• Health, safety and welfare
• Fire safety
• Infection prevention and control – level 2
• Resuscitation – level 2.

It has also been recommended that, for current NHS employees who have not changed roles and who have previously undertaken training in the core subjects of statutory/mandatory training, refresher training requirements should be suspended for the duration of the current crisis.

More detail on this is available through Health Education England’s e-learning portal.
